When invited to a black-tie event, go for a flurry of metallics and florals. We suggest this Oscar de la Renta flared dress, Christian Louboutin pumps, and a Judith Leiber minaudière.
Laid-Back Wedding
Crepe sleeveless dress, Narciso Rodriguez ($1,995); Arc clutch, Nina Ricci ($1,250); Slingback glove sandals, Givenchy ($770). Barneys New York, 660 Madison Ave., 212-833-2200
For a more casual wedding dress code, consider an easy outfit with nude accessories. This Narciso Rodriguez pastel frock will let you dance freely, while the block-heeled Givenchy peep toes offer both comfort and style.
Church Wedding
Buttercup open-back silk-faille dress, Rosie Assoulin ($3,495). Pandora printed perspex clutch, Charlotte Olympia ($1,395). Hello lover cord-trimmed suede pumps, Aquazurra ($765). modaoperandi.com
If you're going to church, dress in a more modest attire without forgoing style by selecting a dramatic black dress with fanned-out sleeves and a cutout back, gold ankle pumps, and an eye-catching floral bag.
Outdoor Wedding
Pansy silk dress, Preen by Thornton Bregazzi ($2,882); Knot clutch, Bottega Veneta ($1,550); Rockstud leather sandals T.60, Valentino ($1,045). fwrd.com
When the venue is outdoors, a main concern is balancing elegance with practicality. To achieve both, opt for a bright sleeveless dress like this silk frock from Preen by Thornton Bregazzi, a champagne-colored clutch, and chunky-heeled sandals, which will prevent you from getting stuck in the ground.
